How to make dub techno chords with the Blukač Endless Processor

[@GoldToni-z2t]

more and more my fav modular channel

[@Tofu_Pilot]

Absolutely fantastic. This is the Basic Channel module for sure!

[@martin-krzywinski]

Tom, you're starting to become my favourite source of Eurorack inspiration and admiration. I appreciate the fast delivery of technical details and what seems like effortless musicality.

[@TomChurchill]

Thanks very much - appreciate that!

[@TonydeKaro]

Amazing! Thank you! It's now on my list 😍

[@guitdafunkadelik]

simple yet brillant and usefull! thanks

[@mymodularjourney]

Such a warm blanket of sound. 👌

[@boydw1]

Very cool - I've been digging the Brickman style dub techno lately 👍

[@Probbie]

Many thanks for the clear explanation of what you are doing Tom. Great video; interesting module! 👍

[@TomChurchill]

Cheers, glad you enjoyed it!

[@themikerichardson]

bravo on the 7th and 9th of the chord first time i’ve ever seen them in a eurorack video

[@geusensdriesmusic]

Cool vibe! Nice combo with ResEQ indeed! ❤

[@TomChurchill]

Cheers dude!

[@Kurko_Meho]

Excellent work, this might go straight to Kompakt label.

[@iamsushi1056]

One thing I can’t wait to do if/when I get an endless processor is to stack up five layers on channel 1, then put the output of channel 1 into channel 2 and save that as just a single layer there. You can potentially stack 25 layers onto channel 2 that way, then feed all of those into channel 1 again. From there it gets much trickier to wrangle more layers out of it repeatedly, but theoretically I’d imagine being able to get a full 50 layers (the 25-stack on 1.1, then four 5-stacks from ch2 onto the other layers of 1, then 5 more in ch2, mixed down to mono)

[@TomChurchill]

Yeah, great point, I haven’t even thought about stacking like that yet! There will probably be some tasty degradation each time you bounce from one side to the other so could be beautifully gnarly. Must give it a try 👍

[@compactmachine]

Sorry, I don’t think the genie lets you wish for more wishes.

[@Jin-Hu]

Nice old school Chemical Brothers vibe

[@AboveTheTrees00]

very nice I think you sold me on it, i'm also really interested how do you use matrix mixer for effect sends, and if it could be flexible enough where if you have let's say 3 or 4 different effects modules, you can not only send to whatever effect you want separately (like most eurorack mixers with 2 sends), but also in between them let's say delay into reverb, (hope i'm making sense) is there a way to patch it like that with matrix mixer?

[@TomChurchill]

I guess it just depends on how many sources and how many effects units you have, and whether things are mono or stereo... but yeah, with a basic 4x4 matrix mixer you could have two mono sound sources and two mono effects and use the matrix mixer to route from one effect to the other, or to introduce feedback...

[@AboveTheTrees00]

@@TomChurchillhope you had nice Christmas, and thanks for your reply. I purchased EP after this video and now i'm trying to select a matrix mixers, i never used them before but they seem very flexible, much more then just regular eurorack mixerwhich i might just replace in my rack with matrix ones...

[@stephenmurphy8349]

Very nice!

[@TheNimasan]

What a lovely module. Great video. Optimix is a blessing as well. Great video! Where the drums coming from?

[@TomChurchill]

Thanks! Drums are Tiptop BD808, RS808 and HATS808 - nothing fancy...

[@nickilling]

Inspiring Tom!

[@simonhaggis6932]

Very nice

[@LeoPerantoni]

This sounds so trippy, really nice patch rundown. I gotta explore LPGs a bit more. Theres someone selling an optomix in my region, I might have to get that right now.

[@saren6538]

V1 or v2 ?

[@LeoPerantoni]

V1@@saren6538

[@ThMntnst]

I have mine mostly paired with the Addac Triple Bandpassfilter to achieve not the same but similar results. Great tool, which can also be interesting while hooked to a slow generative matrix of sounds through switches as well as slow random triggers to the sustain-CV with a CV-sequencer to layer as well as to memory. What I miss a bit would be five LEDs for the layers to more easily set up to which layer a cv-value leads.

[@TomChurchill]

That sounds cool! I like the look of that Addac filter. Also been pondering how to make good use of the CV inputs on the EP and you’ve just given me some ideas… 👍

[@radioshaolin]

Oh mate! Which oscillator do you use for sub bass? Thank you

[@TomChurchill]

I think it was the Dannysound EN129 in this. But it’s literally just a slightly saturated sine wave…

[@andrometer2382]

Awesome

[@saren6538]

This was outstanding, I’m just getting into dub / chords in euro rack so this was perfect, I wonder what a flame vocoder thrown in the mix would have done 😊

[@Tofu_Pilot]

I sold that Vocorder by Flame. It's got a sick filter bank and the spectral thing was unique but..... It seemed more powerful on paper.

[@el_dani]

very inspirational, what's the pattern of the sub bass like?

[@TomChurchill]

Thanks! The sub-bass is super-simple, it’s a 1-bar pattern with just two notes. From memory, this is in E minor, so it’ll be an E on step 3 and a G on step 15 👍

[@TheNimasan]

I don’t know if you are using the disting ex but there is an algorithm for while called spectral freez which is asolutly inspired by this module. You have off course couple of more parameters and possibilities but it’s a very very great algorithm.

[@jason0s]

Great video :) The alt firmware is also super useful.

[@saren6538]

Of which module ?

[@jason0s]

@saren6538 The Endless Processor

[@The_Invisible_Hand_Of_CV]

This is tip-top notch work. Great demonstration of the Endless Processor. What an absolute gem, that module. It sounds amazing under your control. Слава Україні

[@elsaionnsmej]

Is kick and other percussives from Vermona DRM? Nice as always!

[@TomChurchill]

The drums are actually from some Tiptop modules in a rack (just above the Vermona but out of shot) - BD808, MA808, RS808 and HATS808 👍

[@LittleAmbientMachine]

Sound awesome man. I love this kind of minimal stuff. To bad the EP doesn't have a trigger input with build in VCA and a 1V/oct input/Pitch control.

[@TomChurchill]

Thanks! It actually does have a VCA - there’s a CV input for the output level - but the response is quite slow so I think it works better with an external VCA/LPG for anything rhythmic. Agree a V/oct input would be awesome!

[@MuslimShortanov]

Nice patch. What is playing kick ? Nice sounding kick.

[@TomChurchill]

Thanks! Kick is Tiptop BD808.

[@MuslimShortanov]

Good. 🙏🏼

[@MoonbassAlpha]

I would imagine Fumana would be another nice pairing with the blukac...

[@TomChurchill]

Totally agree - a voltage-controlled filter bank would be perfect. The Zlob VC F3DB would probably be fun too.

[@svensupet-7415]

Modular is amazing. You spend 5k plus alot of space for results that you could achieve in a much better quality in 1/10 of time on a 150$ PC-System.

[@tristansotomayor8354]

😂

[@eddraper]

Very nice!
